First time writer tryin to get some information on i rifle my granfather gave me a few years back. I have a Model 1895 250-3000 it has an Id number or a production number underneath the metal plate around the magazine. It is 175232.. I was first wondering the value of the the guy and how i could get the history of it. and secondly is there still ammunition avaivable for the gun. I would like to shoot a deer with this gun befoer the grandfather passes... thanks for the help....
Not an 1895, you've got a model 1899 250-3000.
An early production one at that. Probably has a checkered trigger and an indian logo on the tip of the buttplate. It's a T/D model as well.
As long as it hasn't been tampered with like having a scope installed or had sling swivels added it'd probably fetch $500 up over $1000 depending on the condition it's in.
Ya, they still sell 100 gr ammo for it but if you know someone that reloads they like 87 gr pills alot better.

Ok man thanks for the info, everyone i talked to said it was a 1899 but i did not understand cause it has savage model 1895 writin right on the barrel... again i appreciate the info man
I think the other 9 must be worn down to look like a 5 maybe cause the model 1895's were never stamped with a 1895 stamping.
